I'm after picking the brains of you Whittle men out there. My brother in law recalls helping to recover the body of a Jimmie Henderson? killed by a stone fall in the roadway at Whittle. He mentioned there was a particular type of stone in the roof, almost multi coloured, that formed an arch, but which fell with hardly any warning sound. He's a bit hazy on the date but puts it in the 1960s.
This death isn't on the Durham Mining memorial so any help or information gratefully received.

Thanks to you both, first time I've had a reply from a father and son
I'll have to go back to my brother in law to find out how old this man was, there are a few candidates.
My bro in law went direct to Whittle after Broomhill closed, not via Hauxley, and was involved in the winning of the first face.
